My name is Beate Epp, I and my husband are the owners of Casa Axis Mundi, raw and vegan retreat and b&b. I love vegan and raw vegan food, helping people through therapies and sharing our experience and passion, and most of all, sharing the beautiful Yucatan!

Perfect accommodations and the hosts couldn't be nicer. I left well rested and well fed. The breakfast is excellent — an array of fresh fruit, juice and smoothie. Beate also gave me some great advice on places to explore that weren't overrun with tourists. Wish I could have stayed longer. Thank you!

Beate and Paul were lovely and the retreat was very nice. I loved the hammock on the room patio area. It's a nice 10-15 minute walk to most of the fun sights and the ADO terminal. Delicious fruit assortment, vegan smoothie, and chocolate sauce for breakfast.

Just loved our time in Valladolid with Beaute and Paul (and the gang). The hotel is great, warm and inviting, neat gardens and the rooms are great. Breakfast every morning was delicious and we even had the privilege of staying out at their Rancho on full moon. What an experience we will never forget!

Beate was a lovely host. She was very helpful, offering advice and happy to suggest local places to visit and eat at which was great. The lodgings are comfortable and clean, with plenty of privacy.
There are quite a lot of dogs on site, while I'm not a huge fan of dogs they were all harmless and Beate was careful to ensure they had a space of their own. Thankfully the house is also large enough to accommodate everyone.

We had a nice time at this place. Beate and Paul are very kind people who are great to talk to, the place is located in a nice area and the breakfast is good. The place is beautiful and there is a lovely pool to swim in.
A couple of things to know before you go:
-there is no hot water when the weather is hot, we found this fine
-there is no aircon, but there is a ceiling fan
-the toilet is a baño seco, a bit gross but much better for the environment
-the dogs are lovely but one barked constantly throughout our stay, fine for us but if you're scared of dogs something to consider.
Overall a positive experience.

I'm not a vegan but I enjoyed the healthy breakfasts smoothies and exotic fruits in plentiful supply. Nice swimming pool which we enjoyed and nice dogs. Hosts were friendly and accommodation was as described.

Our stay at the B & B retreat center in Valladolid was fantastic and I highly recommend this place! Our host Beate made our stay extra special and memorable with her abundant hospitality- we felt like we were staying with an old friend! The rooms were cozy, very clean, and thoughtfully decorated--napping in the hammock on our patio surrounded by beautiful tropical foliage was especially amazing. Every morning Beate cooked a delicious breakfast with local produce and even treated us to a fantastic dinner one (website hidden) together and the use of the kitchen was a highlight! As many people have said the pictures on the website don't do it justice- it is a just little slice of heaven and a lovely retreat. We especially loved spending time with the doggies- they were also wonderful hosts. The town of Valladolid does not feel touristy at all, and is a great place from which to explore the cenotes in the surrounding area and many of the ruins nearby-- Beate was very helpful with recommendations and even invited us to go along with her and visit a cenote. We also went to both Ek Balam and Chichen Itza, which were very easy to get to from Valladolid. Thanks again Beate, we were very fortunate to stay with you at your lovely B & B and we really enjoyed meeting you! We hope we can return the favor if you and Paul are ever in San Francisco. Give the doggies a big hug from us too!
